Sorry for the delay in getting back, the end of last week was marred by not being able to get online.
Anyway, I have now imported West Yorkshire (more on this in a bit), Torbay and Thurrock. W.Yorks caused me a lot of problems: 1) naptan:Notes was populated, often with strings greater than 255 characters long. I hadn't counted on such verbose descriptions, so had to include a check for it. 2) They seem to use * as a null field representation, rather than the single space or -, which I was already filtering out. I didn't notice this until the data was imported. 3) The code I had to parse out the local_ref from the Indicator field was broken, truncating the last two digits off all the W.Yrks local_refs (which are a subset of the AtcoCode, incidentally) To solve issues 2 and 3, I had to fix the script and then do a messy 'patch import', this is why all the W.Yrks data is showing as version 2, rather than the standard version 1 for objects. *** Those who are doing analysis of edits to the data should take note of this. *** 2009/9/11 Mark Williams <mark....@blueyonder.co.uk>: > Peter Miller wrote: >> >> On 10 Sep 2009, at 21:00, Mark Williams wrote: > [] >>> When I voted for Essex I had hoped that all of Essex might turn up, >>> but as far as I can see it's excluded Thurrock, a little unitary >>> authority in the S.W. corner - which is, naturally, the bit I wanted... >>> >> >> To be clear, the import request log is by administrative county. >> Thurrock unfortunately for you is only in the ceremonial county of >> Essex, for administrative purposes it is a separately place.
